[Iometer-devel] New development snapshot available

[Daniel S. <dan...@ed...>]

Dear list,

due to the importance of the latest patches I have bundled
the first development snapshot for 2004.07.30-post into the
download area.

Beside others, the following patches are in:
 - em64t.patch by Henryx W. Tieman (Adds the x86_64 port
   for AMD Operton and Intel Xeon with EM64T running Linux
   or Windows).
 - iometer-2004.07.30-post.Ming001AnyBlockDevice.patch by
   Ming Zhang (adds command line arguments to the Linux and
   Solaris variant of Dynamo, to allow the user to specify
   block devices which are not detected by the automatic
   detection).
 - invalid_spec.patch by Lamont Cranston (Allows the user
   to set any request sizes, sector allignment etc. - even
   if it doesn't match the storage devices block size. While
   in interactive mode, the user must confirm his will - in
   batch mode invalid specifications gets executed without
   requiring any kind of confirmation / force flag).

Regards,
Daniel
